Special Meeting Scheduled for Shareholder Vote

Gold Resource Corporation (GORO) has announced a special shareholder meeting on July 2, 2026, to decide on a strategic merger with Goldgroup Mining Inc. This meeting follows the finalization of transaction documentation.

Mailing of proxy materials to shareholders of record, as of May 26, 2026, has been completed. During the meeting, shareholders will vote on the merger, which involves a reverse triangular merger with Goldgroup’s subsidiary, Goldgroup Merger Sub, Inc.

If approved, stockholders of Gold Resource Corporation will receive 1.4476 common shares of Goldgroup for each share they own. This exchange could be adjusted due to a share consolidation by Goldgroup.

Benefits of the Proposed Merger

Enhancing operational scale is a key goal of the merger, resulting in a consolidated precious metals company with improved asset utilization and expanded exploration potential. Shareholders will retain equity in the combined enterprise, benefiting from anticipated growth and cost synergies.

“The filing and mailing of our definitive proxy statement marks a critical milestone toward completing this transformative transaction,” stated CEO Allen Palmiere. The merger will incorporate Goldgroup’s San Francisco and Cerro Prieto mines, expected to increase gold exposure and enhance cash generation.

The Board of Directors has thoroughly examined the proposed merger and strongly urges shareholders to vote “FOR” the merger-related proposals, including executive compensation and potential meeting adjournment to secure additional proxies if needed.

Shareholders should consider voting before the meeting via online platforms, phone, or mail. A majority of outstanding shares is required for approval, meaning non-votes count as votes against the merger.

For assistance, shareholders may contact the company’s proxy solicitation agent, Laurel Hill Advisory Group, for guidance and support in casting their votes. Completion of the merger is expected to drive long-term shareholder value and create a unified platform for navigating dynamic mining markets.

The definitive proxy statement has been filed with the SEC, moving the company into the final approval phase of this strategic combination. The Board highlights the importance of shareholder participation in this crucial decision.
